Project description:Gene expression was compared between two sets of commercially obtained fetal astrocytes and two sets of neuronal stem cell lines derived from iPSC and ES cells. Pathways and genes critical for astrocyte development and maintenance were identified in the analysis. Total RNA obtained from fetal astrocytes from two sources compared to total RNA obtained from two neuronal stem cell lines.

Project description:Reactivation of fetal gene expression patterns has been demonstrated to play a crucial role in common cardiac diseases in adult life including left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy (LVH). Thus, increased wall stress and neurohumoral activation are discussed to induce the return to expression of fetal genes after birth in LVH. We therefore aimed to test whether fetal gene expression programs are linked to the genetic predisposition to LVH. We performed genome-wide gene expression analysis by microarray-technology in a genetic rat model of LVH, i.e. the stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHRSP), to identify differences in expression patterns between day 20 of development (E20) and week 14 in comparison to a normotensive rat strain with low LV mass, i.e. Fischer (F344). 15232 probes from LV RNA from rats at week 14 and at E20 were detected as expressed (p < 0.05) and screened for differential expression. We identified 24 genes with a SHRSP specific up-regulation and 21 genes up-regulated in F344. Further bioinformatic analysis presented Efcab6, Ephx2 and Kcne1 as candidate genes for LVH that showed only in the hypertensive SHRSP rat a differential expression pattern during development and were significantly differentially expressed in adult SHRSP rats compared with two F344 and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats. They represent thus interesting novel targets for further functional analyses and the elucidation of mechanisms leading to LVH. Here we report a new approach to identify candidate genes for cardiac hypertrophy by analysing both gene expression differences between strains with contrasting cardiac phenotype and additionally the gene expression program during development. 26 samples for analysis; no replicates

Project description:Osteoblasts represent an important cell type playing a role in not only bone formation but also regulate hematopoiesis by secreting factor as well as via contact with hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow. Since Wnt signalling plays an important role in osteoblast differentiation, we were interested in looking at how canonical Wnt signalling activation in osteoblastic cells is likely to affect hematopoietic cell adhesion and regulate their fate. Endogenous Wnt signaling activation in osteoblastic SaOS2 cells was achieved by generating doxycycline (DOX) inducible antisense-APC expressing SaOS2 cells. Gene expression profiling was performed on SaOS2 cells induced with DOX (1μg/ml) for 3 days and further on DOX treated cells allowed to recover for 3 days. The results reveal changes in expression of a number of cell adhesion and extracellular matrix protein genes as well as genes involved in osteoblast differentiation. Doxycycline inducible antisense APC expressing SaOS2 cells were treated with DOX for 3 days and compared with control (untreated) cells. In addition, a set of DOX induced cells was further cultured for 3 days in absence of Dox to allow for the cells to recover and see the change in gene expression compared to Dox treated and control cells. All experiments were done in triplicates (in total 9 samples).

Project description:SIRT1 is a NAD+-dependent protein deacetylase. SIRT1 plays key roles in metabolic regulation and adaptation. In this study, we examined the difference of gene expression in brown adipose tissue from WT and SIRT1tg mice. SIRT1 transgenic model (heterozygous transgenic model) has already been described (Pfluger et al., 2008). Here we used homozygote transgenic mice which had been backcrossed to C57Bl/6N background. 3 months old WT and SIRT1tg mice were fed with a low fat diet. After sacrifice, total mRNA obtained from brown adipose were used for microarray.

Project description:Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified hundreds of susceptibility loci for chronic and inflammatory disease phenotypes in humans. There is increasing evidence that chronic inflammation is a crucial driver in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), which may be genetically determined. To understand the genetic architecture underlying chronic inflammation and CVD we performed a systematic analysis of (1) common risk alleles coming from published GWAS, (2) of protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks informed by (3) gene expression data with a defined molecular target involved in the inflammatory processes promoting CVD, MRP8. (4) through analysis of integrated haplotype scores (iHS) and FST values in HapMap phase 2 data, we investigated whether recent selection pressure acting upon inflammatory genes affected CVD susceptibility loci. Our findings provide significant evidence for a PPI network, which connects inflammatory and cardiovascular susceptibility genes, and establish a genetic framework of inflammatory CVD. 41.59% of PPI genes are associated with immune functions. 28.3% of integrated genes can be linked to both, an inflammatory and cardiovascular disease phenotype. Interestingly, CDKN2B, and CELSR2/PSRC1/MYBPHL/SORT1, unequivocally replicated CVD loci, are integrated within this network as are several SNPs located in transcription factor recognition sequences, i.e. NFKB1, STAT3, which are key factors in inflammation. Finally, we observed a significant enrichment of inflammatory variants within CVD cluster loci that are targets of selection. Overall, 32 genes exhibit traces of selection, 16 of which are part of the PPI, further suggesting that recent selective sweeps may have affected the genomic architecture underlying CVD. 6 samples, no replicates.

Project description:KHR-NICD oral tumors grow faster than KHR oral tumors. The hypothesis was to test for differences in gene expression between KHR and KHR-NICD oral tumors. Total RNA was isolated for KHR (n=6) and KHR-NICD (n=6) oral tumors. Expression profiling was performed using the Illumina MouseRef-8 v2 (GPL6885) array. Studies were conducted using tumors from FVB x C57BL/6 F1 mice.

Total RNA was isolated for KHR (n=5), KHR-N+/- (n=4), KHR-N-/- (n=5), KR-N+/- (n=5), KR-N-/- (n=4) oral tumors. Expression profiling was performed using the Illumina MouseRef-8 v2 (GPL6885) array. Studies were conducted using tumors from C57BL/6 mice.

Project description:Analysis of MCA205 tumors developed in C57bl/6 mice on day 2, 7 and 10 after intratumoral treatment with doxorubicin (DX) or PBS solvent. DX triggers the immunogenicity of dying tumor cell and activates anti-tumor immunity. Results provided insight into molecular basis of DX induced immune response. C57bl/6 mice bearing palpable MCA205 fibrosarcoma tumors (25-45mm2) were treated with DX or PBS intratumorally and tumors were recovered 2, 7 or 10 days post treatment. DX treated samples on day 7 were also divided into responder and non responder groups according to tumor shrinkage.

Project description:Direct conversion from fibroblast to neuron has recently been successfully induced bypassing the pluripotent state. However, the conversion takes a few months with low percentages of success. Here we found that depletion of p53, which can converted fibroblasts into three major neural lineages: neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. Furthermore, our method provided a high efficiency of conversion in aging fibroblasts, where published methods failed. This finding may help developing a prototype for neuron replacement therapy, including foraging people vulnerable to neurological disorders. p53 has been shown to inhibit reprogramming of fibroblasts to iPS cells, by depletion of p53 in human fibroblasts, we study the function of p53 in induced neuron process. By induction of p53 knockdown fibroblasts with special neuron medium, we can get mature neurons directly. In the induction process, many neurogenic transcription factors were up-regulated, and we prove that p21 is not involved in this process.
